Engine mounts serve three primary purposes: (1) to support the weight of the engine, (2) to lessen the transmitted engine disturbance forces to the vehicle structure/chassis or airplane fuselage, and (3) to limit the engine motion brought on by shock exc...

The twin-spool rotor-bearing system plays a crucial role in the aero-engine. The potential manufacturing defect, assembly error, and abnormal working loads in the rotor-bearing system can induce multiple rotor failures, such as bolt looseness and rub imp...
